V70 audio upgrade V70-XC70

I am trying to find out if I can easily replace the 4x25watt amp (under front apssenger seat) with amp from C70 system (4x100 watts). Does anybody have experience with replacing/swapping amps. If not, has anybody tried replacing factory amp with after-market amp?

Also, does nayone know specific Volvo part # for the speaker adapters (adapter ONLY!) from the Dynaudio upgrade kit? I have Dynaudio drivers already and wish to use in '98 V70.

Thanks,
PW

This page has some good info on upgrading. May not be specific

Hi PW,
I haven't seen the C70 Amp...Are you sure it's 4 x 100W or is it the HA-4350 which is rated as 4 X 50W. I have this one in my 1998 XC. To answer your question, the amp is likely to fit because the amp wiring harnesses and connectors seem to be the same across the 1997-2000 range and between the SC-816 and SC-900/1.
Cheers,
TB
